Horizon Space Acquisition I Corp. (NASDAQ:HSPO), currently trading at $11.71 with a market capitalization of $91.25 million, has announced the extension of its deadline to complete an initial business combination. The Cayman Islands-based company, which operates as a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), disclosed this development in a recent SEC filing. According to InvestingPro data, the company maintains a relatively low correlation with broader market movements, as indicated by its beta of -0.02.
The filing indicated that the company had until February 27, 2025, to finalize its initial business combination, as per its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. However, the company was able to secure an extension until March 27, 2025, by fulfilling certain conditions.
To facilitate the extension, a Monthly Extension Fee of $120,000 was deposited into the company’s trust account on Monday. This payment was made by Squirrel Enlivened (Hong Kong) Technology Limited, a party to the Business Combination Agreement dated September 16, 2024. InvestingPro analysis reveals that the company’s current ratio of 0.09 suggests tight liquidity, with short-term obligations exceeding liquid assets. The agreement is part of a proposed business combination involving Horizon Space Acquisition I Corp. and several entities collectively referred to as the Squirrel Companies.
In connection with the extension fee payment, Horizon Space Acquisition I Corp. issued an unsecured promissory note to Squirrel Enlivened (Hong Kong) Technology Limited for the same amount. This note bears no interest and is due on the earlier of the consummation of the company’s business combination or the expiration of the company’s term.
The filing also included forward-looking statements concerning the proposed business combination and the anticipated benefits. It highlighted that the merger is subject to various conditions and approvals, and there can be no assurance that the transaction will be completed as planned.
